Carpool as Parental Milestone…

Image via Wikipedia

Drove my first “official” carpool ever the other day.

I quizzed the 8 year old in the car about her expectations regarding what makes a good (or bad) carpool driver.

What I found.

She doesn’t really care.

You can talk on the phone…or not.

Sometimes she wants to talk with you, sometimes she doesn’t.

If you’re late, it' doesn’t bother her (since she’s late a lot).

I guess parents and kids take things differently, eh?
